‘Large Totem Head’ is no.577 in Lund Humphries; there is an edition of eight bronzes.

The sculpture was developed from a small maquette-size work of 1963 called ‘Boat Form’ in which the same shape is tilted on its side. Moore suggested to the compiler (12 December 1980) that when enlarged and standing vertically the sculpture has a quite different presence, evoking a huge impassive face with eyes.
